Active Movement with Char

Enrol Here

Once again we were very lucky this term to have a visit from Char. It was a bit cold and muddy outside so we pushed back all the tables in the art room and had an Active Movement session in there. We played some really neat games.

We LOVE having Char come to visit us and intorduce us to all sorts of fun games. The teachers love it too because they always get new ideas for games that they can use at mat time, choice times and during the day.

“We are born to move. It’s one of the first things a child discovers and learns to do. Quality movement experiences are an essential part of a child’s development, and are just as important for newborns as for older children. Moving and physical activity assist with the healthy growth of child’s brain and body—and have an impact on a child’s social, emotional, physiological, spiritual, cognitive and physical abilities and behaviour.” (An Introduction to Active Movement—Koringa Hihiko, 2009)

At Lumsden Kindergarten we LOVE TO MOVE!

I am particularly impressed with the wonderful teaching and learning that occurs in the art room and also the teaching of different languages to the children. ... I have nothing but praise for this kindergarten.
